The CopernicusLAC Panama Centre
The CopernicusLAC Panama Centre is a regional hub which will improve the resilience of LAC countries by supporting their spatial data management capacity and its strategic use in a region particularly vulnerable to weather events and geological and geomorphological hazards induced by climate change. The Centre is a combined effort between the European Union (through DG INTPA) and the European Space Agency (ESA) in the framework of the EU-LAC Digital Alliance of the Global Gateway project.
